LC-PCC policy statements for first chronological designation of alternative sequence

LC/PCC practice: If the chronological designation includes dates not of the Gregorian or Julian calendar, add the corresponding dates of the Gregorian or Julian calendar if considered important for identification or selection. Supply the value in square brackets.

For instructions on recording this element when an alternative chronological designation of first issue or part of sequence appears on the source of information in more than one language or script, see Manifestation: numbering within sequence. Parallel language or script options.

PCC practice: When creating a new description of a series, take evidence for numbering of sequence from the earliest available part or from an LC-PCC bibliographic description of the earliest available part that conforms to RDA.
